Hi Mandy
I finished chemo on a Friday in July, had the central line out a week later, although the docs were a bit worried, we went on holiday the day after.
We cruised to the Norwegian Fjords - and things were fine. I did have a “bit of a wobble” just before the ship left, worried about being away from the support I had got used to - but things were fine, I think it helped to have a fairly “local” cruise, rather than a long haul holiday, I felt I could always fly home if I had any problems (I didn’t!) - and don’t forget the ships have a really good medical facility too. We cruised from Harwich, so didn’t have to worry about flying/taking meds with us etc.
Hope you have a good holiday wherever you decide to go and whatever you decide to do
